À propos du livre
Alopecia Uncovered is a fine art photography book that explores the therapeutic potential of the portrait through a series of arresting black and white images, essays and journeys of those affected by the condition.
Daniel Regan's Alopecia Project, in which he invited sufferers to be photographed as and how they wished to be represented, was shot over a three year period. For some of his subjects it involved baring all and showing their natural selves, whilst others wished to retain their eyelashes or eyebrows. However the true message of this project is that it's OK being you, but most importantly being the you that you choose.
Now combined with analytical texts by art psychotherapist Jennifer Chambers, Alopecia Uncovered encapsulates the emotional difficulties of sufferers by allowing subjects to reclaim their sense of self by confronting these images of themselves. This book investigates issues of self-esteem, fractured identities and perceptions of illness, illustrated through the use of empowering yet vulnerable photography that challenges the social constructs of beauty.

À propos du créateur
Daniel Regan
London
I’m a photographer based in London, UK. Driven by my interest in emotional states and the journeys of my subjects I use a patient, sensitive and personable approach to capture a soft stillness that resonates in my portraits and projects. I studied photography at both BA and MA level at the University of Brighton and London College of Communication, respectively.
